They wear contact lenses
I think it’s from emotional/psychological trauma. Not wanting to see/be seen
Wow. Thank you for sharing this. Interesting take on the link between psychology and physiology. You are probably unto something there
I read that if you don’t spend enough time outside in daylight while your eyes are developing, the muscles strain and cause the eye to deform with astigmatism. This is exasperated by spending many hours looking at something at close range indoors. That combined with a genetic predisposition. So I would argue that I spent too much time indoors doing homework as a kid and now my astigmatism is bad enough to make driving at night feel unsafe.
Lol these responses, you know that tons of people were wearing eye glasses before screen time was a thing. Glasses have been around since the late 1200’s.
It’s genetic for me. I’ve been wearing glasses since 3rd grade and contacts since 7th grade. Way before non stop screens. My eyesight (perscrption) hasn’t really changed all that much in the last 15 years which has been my most heavy screen use.
90% of them wear contacts, I have crossed paths with many, and I can only list less than 5 people who are not visually impaired. And then there are folks like my mother who has needed to wear bifocal but refuses to wear glasses for aesthetic reasons, and finds contact lenses too bothersome....
I am one of those blessed ones. Must be genetics as I don’t do anything different for my eyesight.
Screen staring for sure
I feel like once you start wearing glasses you never stop since you become dependent on them. Like you get used to whatever prescription and it adapts from there. Kinda like if you wear a brace for too long the muscles it’s supporting get weaker
Some people have 20/20. Some wear contacts. Some wear glasses or a combo of both (me). I think I needed them because it was genetic (one parent wore glasses). I also used to sneak and read my books at night with low light, so straining of the eyes at a young age.
I think it's genetics. I failed my first vision test in first grade and got glasses. It got worse until my 20s where it was just consistently bad.
I have astigmatism since I was a young child.
Those with perfect vision are in the minority. A lot of people wear contacts. I like wearing glasses as I’m so used to wearing glasses & contact lenses irritate my eyes. I also can’t get a perfect prescription for contact lens due to my astigmatism. So my vision is actually better wearing glasses than contacts.
I am 35 and have 20/15 vision in both eyes. My dad was the same way. It's almost certainly genetics. That said, my eyes got so tired while looking at screens while working 12+hr days at big law firms that I needed reading glasses sometimes. Haven't needed them since. Eye fatigue is real.
Probably nutrition, and computer / phone usage. Contact lenses have also made my vision worse, don’t care what the eye doc says but I’ve noticed a major difference when I switched to contacts. I started wearing them in my early 20s
Genetics and I wear contacts since second grade. So, you would never know how bad my vision is until I tell you.
